1.1
Clocking Scheme/Instruction
Cycle
1.2
Instruction Flow/Pipelining
An “Instruction Cycle” consists of four Q cycles (Q1,
Q2, Q3 and Q4). The instruction fetch and execute are
pipelined, such that fetch takes one instruction cycle,
while decode and execute takes another instruction
cycle. However, due to the pipelining, each instruction
effectively executes in one cycle. If an instruction
causes the program counter to change (e.g. GOTO),
then two cycles are required to complete the instruction
(Example 1-1).
The clock input (from OSC1) is internally divided by
four to generate four non-overlapping quadrature
clocks, namely Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4. Internally, the program counter (PC) is incremented every Q1, the
instruction is fetched from the program memory and
latched into the instruction register in Q4. The instruction is decoded and executed during the following Q1
through Q4. The clocks and instruction execution flow
are shown in Figure 1-2.
A fetch cycle begins with the program counter (PC)
incrementing in Q1.
In the execution cycle, the fetched instruction is latched
into the “Instruction Register” in cycle Q1. This instruction is then decoded and executed during the Q2, Q3,
and Q4 cycles. Data memory is read during Q2 (operand read) and written during Q4 (destination write).

MEMORY ORGANIZATION
2.1
Program Memory Organization
The PIC16C925/926 family has a 13-bit program counter capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory
space.
For the PIC16C925, only the first 4K x 14 (0000h0FFFh) are physically implemented. Accessing a location above the physically implemented addresses will
cause a wraparound. The RESET vector is at 0000h
and the interrupt vector is at 0004h.

Data Memory Organization
The data memory is partitioned into four banks which
contain the General Purpose Registers and the Special
Function Registers. Bits RP1 and RP0 are the bank
select bits.

GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER
FILE
The register file can be accessed either directly, or indirectly through the File Select Register FSR
(Section 2.6).
The following General Purpose Registers are not physically implemented:
• F0h-FFh of Bank 1
• 170h-17Fh of Bank 2
• 1F0h-1FFh of Bank 3
These locations are used for common access across
banks.
The lower locations of each Bank are reserved for the
Special Function Registers. Above the Special Function Registers are General Purpose Registers implemented as static RAM. All four banks contain special
function registers. Some “high use” special function
registers are mirrored in other banks for code reduction
and quicker access.

Special Function Registers
The Special Function Registers (SFRs) are registers
used by the CPU and Peripheral Modules for controlling the desired operation of the device. These registers are implemented as static RAM.
TABLE 2-1:
Address
Name
The special function registers can be classified into two
sets, core and peripheral. Those registers associated
with the “core” functions are described in this section.
Those related to the operation of the peripheral
features are described in the section of that peripheral
feature.

STATUS REGISTER
The STATUS register, shown in Register 2-1, contains
the arithmetic status of the ALU, the RESET status and
the bank select bits for data memory.
The STATUS register can be the destination for any
instruction, as with any other register. If the STATUS
register is the destination for an instruction that affects
the Z, DC or C bits, then the write to these three bits is
disabled. These bits are set or cleared according to the
device logic. Furthermore, the TO and PD bits are not
writable. Therefore, the result of an instruction with the
STATUS register as destination may be different than
intended.
REGISTER 2-1:
For example, CLRF STATUS will clear the upper-three
bits and set the Z bit. This leaves the STATUS register
as 000u u1uu (where u = unchanged).
It is recommended, therefore, that only BCF, BSF,
SWAPF and MOVWF instructions are used to alter the
STATUS register because these instructions do not
affect the Z, C or DC bits from the STATUS register. For
other instructions, not affecting any status bits, see the
“Instruction Set Summary.”
Note:
The C and DC bits operate as a borrow
and digit borrow bit, respectively, in subtraction. See the SUBLW and SUBWF
instructions for examples.

PCL and PCLATH
The program counter (PC) is 13-bits wide. The low byte
comes from the PCL register, which is a readable and
writable register. The upper bits (PC<12:8>) are not
readable, but are indirectly writable through the
PCLATH register. On any RESET, the upper bits of the
PC will be cleared. Figure 2-5 shows the two situations
for the loading of the PC. The upper example in the figure shows how the PC is loaded on a write to PCL
(PCLATH<4:0>  PCH). The lower example in the figure shows how the PC is loaded during a CALL or GOTO
instruction (PCLATH<4:3>  PCH).

Note 1: There are no status bits to indicate stack
overflow or stack underflow conditions.
2: There are no instructions/mnemonics
called PUSH or POP. These are actions
that occur from the execution of the
CALL, RETURN, RETLW, and RETFIE
instructions, or the vectoring to an
interrupt address.
2.5
PIC16C925/926 devices are capable of addressing a
continuous 8K word block of program memory. The
CALL and GOTO instructions provide only 11-bits of
address to allow branching within any 2K program
memory page. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction,
the upper 2-bits of the address are provided by
PCLATH<4:3>. When doing a CALL or GOTO instruction, the user must ensure that the page select bits are
programmed so that the desired program memory
page is addressed. If a return from a CALL instruction
(or interrupt) is executed, the entire 13-bit PC is pushed
onto the stack. Therefore, manipulation of the
PCLATH<4:3> bits is not required for the RETURN
instructions (which POPs the address from the stack).
Note:
11
Opcode <10:0>
PCLATH
2.4.1
The contents of the PCLATH register are
unchanged after a RETURN or RETFIE
instruction is executed. The user must
rewrite the PCLATH for any subsequent
CALL or GOTO instructions.
Example 2-1 shows the calling of a subroutine in
page 1 of the program memory. This example assumes
that PCLATH is saved and restored by the Interrupt
Service Routine (if interrupts are used).
COMPUTED GOTO
A computed GOTO is accomplished by adding an offset
to the program counter (ADDWF PCL). When doing a
table read using a computed GOTO method, care
should be exercised if the table location crosses a PCL
memory boundary (each 256 byte block). Refer to the
application note “Implementing a Table Read” (AN556).
2.4.2
Program Memory Paging
STACK
The PIC16CXXX family has an 8-level deep x 13-bit
wide hardware stack. The stack space is not part of
either program or data space and the stack pointer is not
readable or writable. The PC is PUSHed onto the stack
when a CALL instruction is executed, or an interrupt
causes a branch. The stack is POPed in the event of a
RETURN, RETLW or a RETFIE instruction execution.
PCLATH is not affected by a PUSH or POP operation.
EXAMPLE 2-1:
ORG 0x500
BCF
PCLATH,4
BSF
PCLATH,3

;Call subroutine in

;called subroutine
;page 1 (800h-FFFh)
;return to Call subroutine
;in page 0 (000h-7FFh)
The stack operates as a circular buffer. This means that
after the stack has been PUSHed eight times, the ninth
push overwrites the value that was stored from the first
push. The tenth push overwrites the second push (and
so on).

Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers
A simple program to clear RAM locations 20h-2Fh
using indirect addressing is shown in Example 2-2.
The INDF register is not a physical register. Addressing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
EXAMPLE 2-2:
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF register. Any instruction using the INDF register actually
accesses the register pointed to by the File Select Register (FSR). Reading the INDF register itself, indirectly
(FSR = '0'), will produce 00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly results in a no operation (although status
bits may be affected). An effective 9-bit address is
obtained by concatenating the 8-bit FSR register and
the IRP bit (STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 2-6.

READING PROGRAM MEMORY
The Program Memory is readable during normal operation over the entire VDD range. It is indirectly
addressed through Special Function Registers (SFR).
Up to 14-bit numbers can be stored in memory for use
as calibration parameters, serial numbers, packed 7-bit
ASCII, etc. Executing a program memory location containing data that forms an invalid instruction results in a
NOP.
There are five SFRs used to read the program and
memory. These registers are:
•
•
•
•
•
When interfacing to the program memory block, the
PMDATH:PMDATA registers form a two-byte word,
which holds the 14-bit data for reads. The
PMADRH:PMADR registers form a two-byte word,
which holds the 13-bit address of the location being
accessed. These devices can have from 4K words to
8K words of program memory, with an address range
from 0h to 3FFFh.
The unused upper bits in both the PMDATH and
PMADRH registers are not implemented and read as
“0’s”.
3.1
PMCON1
PMDATA
PMDATH
PMADR
PMADRH
PMADR
The address registers can address up to a maximum of
8K words of program memory.
The program memory allows word reads. Program
memory access allows for checksum calculation and
reading calibration tables.
When selecting a program address value, the MSByte
of the address is written to the PMADRH register and
the LSByte is written to the PMADR register. The upper
MSbits of PMADRH must always be clear.
3.2
PMCON1 Register
PMCON1 is the control register for memory accesses.
The control bit RD initiates read operations. This bit
cannot be cleared, only set, in software. It is cleared in
hardware at the completion of the read operation.

Reading the Program Memory
data is available in the PMDATA and PMDATH registers after the NOP instruction. Therefore, it can be read
as two bytes in the following instructions. The PMDATA
and PMDATH registers will hold this value until another
read operation.
A program memory location may be read by writing two
bytes of the address to the PMADR and PMADRH registers, and then setting control bit RD (PMCON1<0>).
Once the read control bit is set, the microcontroller will
use the next two instruction cycles to read the data. The

Operation During Code Protect
If only part of the program memory is code protected,
the program memory control can read the unprotected
segment and cannot read the protected segment. The
protected area cannot be read, because it may be
possible to write a downloading routine into the
unprotected segment.
If the program memory is not code protected, the program memory control can read anywhere within the
program memory.
If the entire program memory is code protected, the
program memory control can read anywhere within the
program memory.

I/O PORTS
FIGURE 4-1:
Some pins for these ports are multiplexed with an alternate function for the peripheral features on the device.
In general, when a peripheral is enabled, that pin may
not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
4.1
Data
Bus
The RA4/T0CKI pin is a Schmitt Trigger input and an
open drain output. All other RA port pins have TTL
input levels and full CMOS output drivers. All RA pins
have data direction bits (TRISA register), which can
configure these pins as output or input.
Reading the PORTA register reads the status of the
pins, whereas writing to it will write to the port latch. All
write operations are read-modify-write operations.
Therefore, a write to a port implies that the port pins are
read, this value is modified, and then written to the port
data latch.
Pin RA4 is multiplexed with the Timer0 module clock
input to become the RA4/T0CKI pin. The other PORTA
pins are multiplexed with analog inputs and the analog
VREF input. The operation of each pin is selected by
clearing/setting the control bits in the ADCON1 register
(A/D Control Register1).

PORTB and TRISB Register
PORTB is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corresponding data direction register is TRISB. Setting a bit
in the TRISB register puts the corresponding output
driver in a Hi-Impedance Input mode. Clearing a bit in
the TRISB register puts the contents of the output latch
on the selected pin(s).

Each of the PORTB pins has a weak internal pull-up. A
single control bit can turn on all the pull-ups. This is performed by clearing bit RBPU (OPTION<7>). The weak
pull-up is automatically turned off when the port pin is
configured as an output. The pull-ups are also disabled
on a Power-on Reset.
FIGURE 4-3:
BLOCK DIAGRAM OF
RB3:RB0 PINS
Four of the PORTB pins (RB7:RB4) have an
interrupt-on-change feature. Only pins configured as
inputs can cause this interrupt to occur (i.e., any
RB7:RB4 pin configured as an output is excluded from
the interrupt-on-change comparison). The input pins (of
RB7:RB4) are compared with the old value latched on
the last read of PORTB. The “mismatch” outputs of
RB7:RB4 are OR’ed together to generate the RB Port
Change Interrupt with flag bit RBIF (INTCON<0>).
This interrupt can wake the device from SLEEP. The
user, in the Interrupt Service Routine, can clear the
interrupt in the following manner:
a)
b)
Any read or write of PORTB. This will end the
mismatch condition.
Clear flag bit RBIF.
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RBIF.
Reading PORTB will end the mismatch condition, and
allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared.
This interrupt-on-mismatch feature, together with software configurable pull-ups on these four pins, allow easy
interface to a keypad and make it possible for wake-up on
key depression. Refer to the Embedded Control Handbook, “Implementing Wake-Up on Key Stroke” (AN552).
The interrupt-on-change feature is recommended for
wake-up on key depression operation and operations
where PORTB is only used for the interrupt-on-change
feature. Polling of PORTB is not recommended while
using the interrupt-on-change feature.

When enabling peripheral functions, care should be
taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTC pin. Some
peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an output, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to
make a pin an input. Since the TRIS bit override is in
effect while the peripheral is enabled, readmodify-write instructions (BSF, BCF, XORWF) with
TRISC as destination should be avoided. The user
should refer to the corresponding peripheral section for
the correct TRIS bit settings.

I/O Programming Considerations
EXAMPLE 4-8:
READ-MODIFY-WRITE
INSTRUCTIONS ON AN
I/O PORT
BI-DIRECTIONAL I/O PORTS
Any instruction which writes, operates internally as a
read followed by a write operation. The BCF and BSF
instructions, for example, read the register into the
CPU, execute the bit operation and write the result
back to the register. Caution must be used when these
instructions are applied to a port with both inputs and
outputs defined. For example, a BSF operation on bit5
of PORTB will cause all eight bits of PORTB to be read
into the CPU. Then the BSF operation takes place on
bit5 and PORTB is written to the output latches. If
another bit of PORTB is used as a bi-directional I/O pin
(e.g., bit0) and it is defined as an input at this time, the
input signal present on the pin itself would be read into
the CPU and rewritten to the data latch of this particular
pin, overwriting the previous content. As long as the pin
stays in the input mode, no problem occurs. However,
if bit0 is switched into output mode later on, the contents of the data latch may now be unknown.
Reading the port register reads the values of the port
pins. Writing to the port register, writes the value to the
port latch. When using read-modify-write instructions
(e.g. BCF, BSF) on a port, the value of the port pins is
read, the desired operation is done to this value, and
this value is then written to the port latch.
Example 4-8 shows the effect of two sequential
read-modify-write instructions on an I/O port. A pin
actively outputting a Low or High should not be driven
from external devices at the same time, in order to
change the level on this pin (“wired-or”, “wired-and”).
The resulting high output currents may damage the
chip.
FIGURE 4-10:

4.8.2
SUCCESSIVE OPERATIONS ON I/O
PORTS
The actual write to an I/O port happens at the end of an
instruction cycle, whereas for reading, the data must be
valid at the beginning of the instruction cycle
(Figure 4-10). Therefore, care must be exercised if a
write followed by a read operation is carried out on the
same I/O port. The sequence of instructions should be
such to allow the pin voltage to stabilize (load dependent) before the next instruction, which causes that file
to be read into the CPU, is executed. Otherwise, the
previous state of that pin may be read into the CPU,
rather than the new state. When in doubt, it is better to
separate these instructions with a NOP, or another
instruction not accessing this I/O port.

TIMER0 MODULE
bit T0SE selects the rising edge. Restrictions on the

•
•
•
8-bit timer/counter

8-bit software programmable prescaler
Internal or external clock select
Interrupt-on-overflow from FFh to 00h
Edge select for external clock
The prescaler is mutually exclusively shared between
the Timer0 module and the Watchdog Timer. The
prescaler assignment is controlled in software by control bit PSA (OPTION<3>). Clearing bit PSA will assign
the prescaler to the Timer0 module. The prescaler is
not readable or writable. When the prescaler is
assigned to the Timer0 module, prescale values of 1:2,
1:4,..., 1:256 are selectable. Section 5.3 details the
operation of the prescaler.
Figure 5-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer0
module.
Timer mode is selected by clearing bit T0CS
(OPTION<5>). In Timer mode, the Timer0 module will
increment every instruction cycle (without prescaler). If
the TMR0 register is written, the increment is inhibited
for the following two instruction cycles (Figure 5-2 and
Figure 5-3). The user can work around this by writing
an adjusted value to the TMR0 register.
5.1
The TMR0 interrupt is generated when the TMR0 register overflows from FFh to 00h. This overflow sets bit
TMR0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be masked
by clearing bit T0IE (INTCON<5>). Bit TMR0IF must be
cleared in software by the Timer0 module Interrupt Service Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The
TMR0 interrupt cannot awaken the processor from
SLEEP, since the timer is shut-off during SLEEP.
Figure 5-4 displays the Timer0 interrupt timing.
Counter mode is selected by setting bit T0CS
(OPTION<5>). In Counter mode, Timer0 will increment
either on every rising, or falling edge of pin RA4/T0CKI.
The incrementing edge is determined by the Timer0
Source Edge Select bit T0SE (OPTION<4>). Clearing

Using Timer0 with an External
Clock
When an external clock input is used for Timer0, it must
meet certain requirements. The requirements ensure
the external clock can be synchronized with the internal
phase clock (TOSC). Also, there is a delay in the actual
incrementing of Timer0 after synchronization.
5.2.1
EXTERNAL CLOCK
SYNCHRONIZATION
When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T0CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks (Figure 5-5).
Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to be high for at
least 2TOSC (and a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for
at least 2TOSC (and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer
to the electrical specification of the desired device.
FIGURE 5-5:
When a prescaler is used, the external clock input is
divided by the asynchronous ripple counter type prescaler, so that the prescaler output is symmetrical. For
the external clock to meet the sampling requirement,
the ripple counter must be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T0CKI to have a period of at
least 4TOSC (and a small RC delay of 40 ns) divided by
the prescaler value. The only requirement on T0CKI
high and low time is that they do not violate the minimum pulse width requirement of 10 ns. Refer to parameters 40, 41 and 42 in the electrical specification of the
desired device.
5.2.2
TMR0 INCREMENT DELAY
Since the prescaler output is synchronized with the
internal clocks, there is a small delay from the time the
external clock edge occurs to the time the Timer0 module is actually incremented. Figure 5-5 shows the delay
from the external clock edge to the timer incrementing.

5.3
Prescaler
The PSA and PS2:PS0 bits (OPTION<3:0>) determine
the prescaler assignment and prescale ratio.
An 8-bit counter is available as a prescaler for the
Timer0 module, or as a postscaler for the Watchdog
Timer (Figure 5-6). For simplicity, this counter is being
referred to as “prescaler” throughout this data sheet.
Note that the prescaler may be used by either the
Timer0 module or the WDT, but not both. Thus, a prescaler assignment for the Timer0 module means that
there is no prescaler for the Watchdog Timer, and viceversa.
FIGURE 5-6:
When assigned to the Timer0 module, all instructions
writing to the TMR0 register (e.g. CLRF 1, MOVWF 1,
BSF 1,x....etc.) will clear the prescaler count. When
assigned to WDT, a CLRWDT instruction will clear the
prescaler count along with the Watchdog Timer. The
prescaler is not readable or writable.
Note:
Writing to TMR0 when the prescaler is
assigned to Timer0, will clear the prescaler
count, but will not change the prescaler
assignment.

TIMER1 MODULE
Timer1 is a 16-bit timer/counter consisting of two 8-bit
registers (TMR1H and TMR1L), which are readable
and
writable.
The
TMR1
Register
pair
(TMR1H:TMR1L) increments from 0000h to FFFFh
and rolls over to 0000h. The TMR1 Interrupt, if enabled,
is generated on overflow, which is latched in interrupt
flag bit, TMR1IF (PIR1<0>). This interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing TMR1 interrupt
enable bit, TMR1IE (PIE1<0>).
Timer1 can operate in one of two modes:
• As a timer
• As a counter
In Timer mode, Timer1 increments every instruction
cycle. In Counter mode, it increments on every rising
edge of the external clock input.
Timer1 can be turned on and off using the control bit
TMR1ON (T1CON<0>).
Timer1 also has an internal “RESET input”. This
RESET can be generated by the CCP module
(Section 8.0). Register 6-1 shows the Timer1 control
register.
When the Timer1 oscillator is enabled (T1OSCEN is
set), the RC1/T1OSI and RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI pins
become inputs, regardless of the TRISC<1:0>. RC1
and RC0 will be read as ‘0’.
The operating mode is determined by the clock select

6.1
Timer1 Operation in Timer Mode
Timer mode is selected by clearing the TMR1CS
(T1CON<1>) bit. In this mode, the input clock to the
timer is FOSC/4. The synchronize control bit T1SYNC
(T1CON<2>) has no effect since the internal clock is
always in sync.
6.2
Timer1 Operation in Synchronized
Counter Mode
Counter mode is selected by setting bit TMR1CS. In
this mode, the timer increments on every rising edge of
clock input on pin RC1/T1OSI when bit T1OSCEN is
set, or pin RC0/T1OSO/T1CKI when bit T1OSCEN is
cleared.
If T1SYNC is cleared, then the external clock input is
synchronized with internal phase clocks. The synchronization is done after the prescaler stage. The prescaler is an asynchronous ripple counter.
In this configuration, during SLEEP mode, Timer1 will
not increment even if the external clock is present,
since the synchronization circuit is shut-off. The prescaler however will continue to increment.
FIGURE 6-1:
6.2.1
EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT TIMING
FOR SYNCHRONIZED COUNTER
MODE
When an external clock input is used for Timer1 in Synchronized Counter mode, it must meet certain requirements. The external clock requirement is due to
internal phase clock (TOSC) synchronization. Also,
there is a delay in the actual incrementing of TMR1
after synchronization.
When the prescaler is 1:1, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T1CKI with the internal phase clocks is accomplished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is
necessary for T1CKI to be high for at least 2TOSC (and
a small RC delay of 20 ns), and low for at least 2TOSC
(and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to the appropriate electrical specifications, parameters 45, 46, and 47.
When a prescaler other than 1:1 is used, the external
clock input is divided by the asynchronous ripple
counter type prescaler, so that the prescaler output is
symmetrical. In order for the external clock to meet the
sampling requirement, the ripple counter must be taken
into account. Therefore, it is necessary for T1CKI to
have a period of at least 4TOSC (and a small RC delay
of 40 ns), divided by the prescaler value. The only
requirement on T1CKI high and low time is that they do
not violate the minimum pulse width requirements of
10 ns). Refer to the appropriate electrical specifications, parameters 40, 42, 45, 46, and 47.

6.3.2
Timer1 Operation in
Asynchronous Counter Mode
If control bit T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external
clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to
increment asynchronous to the internal phase clocks.
The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can
generate an interrupt-on-overflow which will wake-up
the processor. However, special precautions in software are needed to read from, or write to the Timer1
register pair (TMR1H:TMR1L) (Section 6.3.2).
In Asynchronous Counter mode, Timer1 cannot be
used as a time-base for capture or compare operations.
6.3.1
EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT TIMING
WITH UNSYNCHRONIZED CLOCK
If control bit T1SYNC is set, the timer will increment
completely asynchronously. The input clock must meet
certain minimum high time and low time requirements,
as specified in timing parameters 45, 46, and 47.
EXAMPLE 6-1:
READING AND WRITING TMR1 IN
ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER
MODE
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L, while the timer is running
from an external asynchronous clock, will ensure a
valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the
user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer
in two 8-bit values itself, poses certain problems, since
the timer may overflow between the reads.
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop
the timer and write the desired values. A write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers while the
register is incrementing. This may produce an unpredictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care.
Example 6-1 is an example routine to read the 16-bit
timer value. This is useful if the timer cannot be
stopped.

Timer1 Oscillator
6.5
A crystal oscillator circuit is built-in between pins T1OSI
(input) and T1OSO (amplifier output). It is enabled by
setting control bit T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The oscillator is a low power oscillator rated up to 200 kHz. It will
continue to run during SLEEP. It is primarily intended
for a 32 kHz crystal. Table 6-1 shows the capacitor
selection for the Timer1 oscillator.
The Timer1 oscillator is identical to the LP oscillator.
The user must provide a software time delay to ensure
proper oscillator start-up.

If the CCP1 module is configured in Compare mode to
generate a “special event trigger” (CCP1M3:CCP1M0
= 1011), this signal will reset Timer1.
Note:
The special event trigger from the CCP1
module will not set interrupt flag bit
TMR1IF (PIR1<0>).
Timer1 must be configured for either Timer or Synchronized Counter mode, to take advantage of this feature.
If Timer1 is running in Asynchronous Counter mode,
this reset operation may not work.
In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a
special event trigger from CCP1, the write will take precedence.
In this mode of operation, the CCPR1H:CCPR1L registers pair effectively become the period register for
Timer1.

TIMER2 MODULE
7.1
Timer2 is an 8-bit timer with a prescaler and a
postscaler. It can be used as the PWM time-base for
the PWM mode of the CCP module. It can also be used
as a time-base for the Master mode SPI clock. The
TMR2 register is readable and writable, and is cleared
on any device RESET.
The input clock (FOSC/4) has a prescale option of 1:1,
1:4,
or
1:16
(selected
by
control
bits
T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON<1:0>)).
The Timer2 module has an 8-bit period register, PR2.
TMR2 increments from 00h until it matches PR2 and
then resets to 00h on the next increment cycle. PR2 is
a readable and writable register. The PR2 register is
set during RESET.
The match output of TMR2 goes through a 4-bit
postscaler (which gives a 1:1 to 1:16 scaling inclusive)
to generate a TMR2 interrupt (latched in flag bit
TMR2IF, (PIR1<1>)).
Timer2 can be shut-off by clearing control bit TMR2ON
(T2CON<2>) to minimize power consumption.
Timer2 Prescaler and Postscaler
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared
when any of the following occurs:
• a write to the TMR2 register
• a write to the T2CON register
• any device RESET (Power-on Reset, MCLR
Reset, or Watchdog Timer Reset)
TMR2 will not clear when T2CON is written.
7.2
Output of TMR2
The output of TMR2 (before the postscaler) is fed to the
Synchronous Serial Port module, which optionally uses
it to generate the shift clock.

CCP PRESCALER
There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits
CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is
turned off, or the CCP module is not in Capture mode,
the prescaler counter is cleared. This means that any
RESET will clear the prescaler counter.
Switching from one capture prescaler to another may
generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will
not be cleared, therefore, the first capture may be from
a non-zero prescaler. Example 8-1 shows the recommended method for switching between capture prescalers. This example also clears the prescaler counter
and will not generate the “false” interrupt.

When the Capture mode is changed, a false capture
interrupt may be generated. The user should keep

such change in operating mode.
8.1.4
An event is selected by control bits CCP1M3:CCP1M0
(CCP1CON<3:0>). When a capture is made, the interrupt request flag bit CCP1IF (PIR1<2>) is set. It must

In Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, the CCP1 pin

pin an output.
Note:
Clearing the CCP1CON register will force

The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2 register. The PWM period can be calculated using the following formula:
PWM period = [ (PR2) + 1 ] • 4 • TOSC •
(TMR2 prescale value)
PWM frequency is defined as 1 / [PWM period].
When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the following three events
occur on the next increment cycle:
• TMR2 is cleared
• The CCP1 pin is set (exception: if PWM duty
cycle = 0%, the CCP1 pin will not be set)

A PWM output (Figure 8-4) has a time-base (period)
and a time that the output stays high (duty cycle). The
frequency of the PWM is the inverse of the period
(1/period).
PWM OUTPUT
The PWM duty cycle is specified by writing to the
CCPR1L register and to the CCP1CON<5:4> bits. Up
to 10-bit resolution is available; the CCPR1L contains
the eight MSbs and CCP1CON<5:4> contains the two
LSbs. This 10-bit value is represented by
CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>. The following equation is
used to calculate the PWM duty cycle in time:
The CCPR1H register and a 2-bit internal latch are
used to double buffer the PWM duty cycle. This double
buffering is essential for glitchless PWM operation.
When the CCPR1H and 2-bit latch match TMR2, concatenated with an internal 2-bit Q clock, or 2 bits of the
TMR2 prescaler, the CCP1 pin is cleared.
The maximum PWM resolution (bits) for a given PWM
frequency is given by the equation:

CCPR1L and CCP1CON<5:4> can be written to at any
time, but the duty cycle value is not latched into
CCPR1H until after a match between PR2 and TMR2
occurs (i.e., the period is complete). In PWM mode,
CCPR1H is a read only register.
Note 1: 8-bit timer is concatenated with 2-bit internal Q clock
or 2 bits of the prescaler to create 10-bit time-base.
FIGURE 8-4:
The Timer2 postscaler (Section 7.0) is not
used in the determination of the PWM frequency. The postscaler could be used to
have a servo update rate at a different frequency than the PWM output.

EXAMPLES OF PWM PERIOD AND DUTY CYCLE CALCULATION
Find the value of the PR2 register, given:
• Desired PWM frequency = 31.25 kHz
• FOSC = 8 MHz
• TMR2 prescale = 1
From the equation for PWM period in Section 8.3.1,
1 / 31.25 kHz
= [ (PR2) + 1 ] • 4 • 1/8 MHz • 1
32 s
= [ (PR2) + 1 ] • 4 • 125 ns • 1 = [ (PR2) + 1 ] • 0.5 s
PR2
= (32 s / 0.5 s) - 1
PR2
= 63
or
2.
Find the maximum resolution of the duty cycle that can be used with a 31.25 kHz frequency and
8 MHz oscillator.
From the equation from maximum PWM resolution in Section 8.3.2,
1 / 31.25 kHz
= 2PWM RESOLUTION • 1 / 8 MHz • 1
32 s
= 2PWM RESOLUTION • 125 ns • 1
256
= 2PWM RESOLUTION
log(256)
= (PWM Resolution) • log(2)

or
At most, an 8-bit resolution duty cycle can be obtained
from a 31.25 kHz frequency and a 8 MHz oscillator, i.e.,
0  CCPR1L:CCP1CON<5:4>  255. Any value greater
than 255 will result in a 100% duty cycle.

In order to achieve higher resolution, the PWM frequency must be decreased. In order to achieve higher
PWM frequency, the resolution must be decreased.

EXAMPLE 9-1:
SPI Mode
The SPI mode allows 8-bits of data to be synchronously transmitted and received simultaneously. To
accomplish communication, typically three pins are
used:
LOOP
• Serial Data Out (SDO) RC5/SDO
• Serial Data In (SDI) RC4/SDI
• Serial Clock (SCK) RC3/SCK
MOVF
When initializing the SPI, several options need to be
specified. This is done by programming the appropriate
control bits in the SSPCON register (SSPCON<5:0>)
and SSPSTAT<7:6>. These control bits allow the following to be specified:
•
•
•
•
Master mode (SCK is the clock output)
Slave mode (SCK is the clock input)
Clock Polarity (Idle state of SCK)
Clock Edge (output data on rising/falling edge of
SCK)
• Clock Rate (Master mode only)
• Slave Select mode (Slave mode only)

MOVWF SSPBUF
The block diagram of the SSP module, when in SPI
mode (Figure 9-1), shows that the SSPSR is not
directly readable or writable, and can only be accessed
from addressing the SSPBUF register. Additionally, the
SSP status register (SSPSTAT) indicates the various
status conditions.
FIGURE 9-1:
The SSP consists of a transmit/receive shift register
(SSPSR) and a buffer register (SSPBUF). The SSPSR
shifts the data in and out of the device, MSb first. The
SSPBUF holds the data that was written to the SSPSR,
until the received data is ready. Once the 8-bits of data
have been received, that byte is moved to the SSPBUF
register. Then, the buffer full detect bit, BF
(SSPSTAT<0>), and interrupt flag bit, SSPIF
(PIR1<3>), are set. This double buffering of the
received data (SSPBUF) allows the next byte to start
reception before reading the data that was just
received. Any write to the SSPBUF register during
transmission/reception of data will be ignored, and the
write collision detect bit, WCOL (SSPCON<7>), will be
set. User software must clear the WCOL bit so that it
can be determined if the following write(s) to the
SSPBUF register completed successfully. When the
application software is expecting to receive valid data,
the SSPBUF should be read before the next byte of
data to transfer is written to the SSPBUF. Buffer full bit,
BF (SSPSTAT<0>), indicates when SSPBUF has been
loaded with the received data (transmission is complete). When the SSPBUF is read, bit BF is cleared.
This data may be irrelevant if the SPI is only a transmitter. Generally, the SSP interrupt is used to determine
when the transmission/reception has completed. The
SSPBUF must be read and/or written. If the interrupt
method is not going to be used, then software polling
can be done to ensure that a write collision does not
occur. Example 9-1 shows the loading of the SSPBUF
(SSPSR) for data transmission. The MOVWF RXDATA
instruction (shaded) is only required if the received data
is meaningful.

To enable the serial port, SSP enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>) must be set. To reset or reconfigure
SPI mode, clear bit SSPEN, re-initialize the SSPCON
register, and then set bit SSPEN. This configures the
SDI, SDO, SCK, and SS pins as serial port pins. For the
pins to behave as the serial port function, they must
have their data direction bits (in the TRISC register)
appropriately programmed. That is:
• SDI must have TRISC<4> set
• SDO must have TRISC<5> cleared
• SCK (Master mode) must have TRISC<3>
cleared
• SCK (Slave mode) must have TRISC<3> set
• SS must have TRISA<5> set and ADCON must
be configured such that RA5 is a digital I/O
Any serial port function that is not desired may be overridden by programming the corresponding data direction (TRIS) register to the opposite value. An example
would be in Master mode, where you are only sending
data (to a display driver), then both SDI and SS could
be used as general purpose outputs by clearing their
corresponding TRIS register bits.
Figure 9-2 shows a typical connection between two
microcontrollers. The master controller (Processor 1)
initiates the data transfer by sending the SCK signal.
Data is shifted out of both shift registers on their programmed clock edge, and latched on the opposite
edge of the clock. Both processors should be programmed to same Clock Polarity (CKP), then both controllers would send and receive data at the same time.
Whether the data is meaningful (or dummy data),
depends on the application software. This leads to
three scenarios for data transmission:
• Master sends data—Slave sends dummy data
• Master sends data—Slave sends data
FIGURE 9-2:
• Master sends dummy data—Slave sends data
The master can initiate the data transfer at any time
because it controls the SCK. The master determines
when the slave (Processor 2) is to broadcast data by
the firmware protocol.
In Master mode, the data is transmitted/received as
soon as the SSPBUF register is written to. If the SPI is
only going to receive, the SCK output could be disabled
(programmed as an input). The SSPSR register will
continue to shift in the signal present on the SDI pin at
the programmed clock rate. As each byte is received, it
will be loaded into the SSPBUF register as if a normal
received byte (interrupts and status bits appropriately
set). This could be useful in receiver applications as a
“line activity monitor” mode.
In Slave mode, the data is transmitted and received as
the external clock pulses appear on SCK. When the
last bit is latched, the interrupt flag bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>)
is set.
The clock polarity is selected by appropriately programming bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). This then, would give
waveforms for SPI communication as shown in
Figure 9-3, Figure 9-4, and Figure 9-5, where the MSB
is transmitted first. In Master mode, the SPI clock rate
(bit rate) is user programmable to be one of the
following:
•
•
•
•
FOSC/4 (or TCY)
FOSC/16 (or 4 • TCY)
FOSC/64 (or 16 • TCY)
Timer2 output/2
This allows a maximum bit clock frequency (at 8 MHz)
of 2 MHz. When in Slave mode, the external clock must
meet the minimum high and low times.
In SLEEP mode, the slave can transmit and receive
data and wake the device from SLEEP.

The SS pin allows a Synchronous Slave mode. The
SPI must be in Slave mode (SSPCON<3:0> = 04h)
and the TRISA<5> bit must be set for the Synchronous Slave mode to be enabled. When the SS pin
is low, transmission and reception are enabled and
the SDO pin is driven. When the SS pin goes high,
the SDO pin is no longer driven, even if in the middle of a transmitted byte and becomes a floating
output. External pull-up/pull-down resistors may be
desirable, depending on the application.
FIGURE 9-3:
Note 1: When the SPI is in Slave mode with SS
pin control enabled (SSPCON<3:0> =
0100), the SPI module will reset if the SS
pin is set to VDD.
2: If the SPI is used in Slave mode with
CKE = '1', then the SS pin control must be
enabled.
To emulate two-wire communication, the SDO pin can
be connected to the SDI pin. When the SPI needs to
operate as a receiver, the SDO pin can be configured
as an input. This disables transmissions from the SDO.
The SDI can always be left as an input (SDI function)
since it cannot create a bus conflict.

I 2C Overview
9.2
This section provides an overview of the InterIntegrated Circuit (I 2C) bus, with Section 9.3 discussing the operation of the SSP module in I 2C mode.
The I 2C bus is a two-wire serial interface developed by
the Philips Corporation. The original specification, or
standard mode, was for data transfers of up to 100
Kbps. An enhanced specification, or fast mode is not
supported. This device will communicate with fast
mode devices if attached to the same bus.
The output stages of the clock (SCL) and data (SDA)
lines must have an open drain or open collector, in
order to perform the wired-AND function of the bus.
External pull-up resistors are used to ensure a high
level when no device is pulling the line down. The number of devices that may be attached to the I 2C bus is
limited only by the maximum bus loading specification
of 400 pF.
9.2.1
INITIATING AND TERMINATING
DATA TRANSFER
The I 2C interface employs a comprehensive protocol to
ensure reliable transmission and reception of data.
When transmitting data, one device is the “master”
which initiates transfer on the bus and generates the
clock signals to permit that transfer, while the other
device(s) acts as the “slave.” All portions of the slave
protocol are implemented in the SSP module’s hardware, except general call support, while portions of the
master protocol need to be addressed in the
PIC16CXXX software. Table 9-2 defines some of the
I 2C bus terminology. For additional information on the
I 2C interface specification, refer to the Philips document #939839340011, “The I 2C bus and how to use it”,
which can be obtained from the Philips Corporation.
During times of no data transfer (idle time), both the
clock line (SCL) and the data line (SDA) are pulled high
through the external pull-up resistors. The START and
STOP conditions determine the start and stop of data
transmission. The START condition is defined as a
high to low transition of the SDA when the SCL is high.
The STOP condition is defined as a low to high transition of the SDA when the SCL is high. Figure 9-6 shows
the START and STOP conditions. The master generates these conditions for starting and terminating data
transfer. Due to the definition of the START and STOP
conditions, when data is being transmitted, the SDA
line can only change state when the SCL line is low.
In the I 2C interface protocol, each device has an
address. When a master wishes to initiate a data transfer, it first transmits the address of the device that it
wishes to “talk” to. All devices “listen” to see if this is
their address. Within this address, a bit specifies if the
master wishes to read from/write to the slave device.
The master and slave are always in opposite modes
(transmitter/receiver) of operation during a data transfer. That is, they can be thought of as operating in either
of these two relations:

ADDRESSING I 2C DEVICES
9.2.2
9.2.3
There are two address formats. The simplest is the
7-bit address format with a R/W bit (Figure 9-7). The
more complex is the 10-bit address with a R/W bit
(Figure 9-8). For 10-bit address format, two bytes must
be transmitted with the first five bits specifying this to be
a 10-bit address.
FIGURE 9-7:

All data must be transmitted per byte, with no limit to
the number of bytes transmitted per data transfer. After
each byte, the slave-receiver generates an Acknowledge bit (ACK) (see Figure 9-9). When a slave-receiver
doesn’t acknowledge the slave address or received
data, the master must abort the transfer. The slave
must leave SDA high so that the master can generate
the STOP condition (Figure 9-6).

If the master is receiving the data (master-receiver), it
generates an Acknowledge signal for each received
byte of data, except for the last byte. To signal the end
of data to the slave-transmitter, the master does not
generate an Acknowledge (Not Acknowledge). The
slave then releases the SDA line so the master can
generate the STOP condition. The master can also
generate the STOP condition during the Acknowledge
pulse for valid termination of data transfer.

If the slave needs to delay the transmission of the next
byte, holding the SCL line low will force the master into
a wait state. Data transfer continues when the slave
releases the SCL line. This allows the slave to move
the received data, or fetch the data it needs to transfer
before allowing the clock to start. This wait state technique can also be implemented at the bit level,
Figure 9-10. The slave will inherently stretch the clock
when it is a transmitter, but will not when it is a receiver.
The slave will have to clear the SSPCON<4> bit to
enable clock stretching when it is a receiver.

while SCL is high), but occurs after a data transfer
Acknowledge pulse (not the bus-free state). This allows
a master to send “commands” to the slave and then
receive the requested information, or to address a different slave device. This sequence is shown in
Figure 9-13.
When a master does not wish to relinquish the bus (by
generating a STOP condition), a Repeated START
condition (Sr) must be generated. This condition is
identical to the START condition (SDA goes high-to-low

9.2.4
MULTI-MASTER
9.2.4.2
The I2C protocol allows a system to have more than
one master. This is called multi-master. When two or
more masters try to transfer data at the same time,
arbitration and synchronization occur.
9.2.4.1
Arbitration
Arbitration takes place on the SDA line, while the SCL
line is high. The master, which transmits a high when
the other master transmits a low, loses arbitration
(Figure 9-14) and turns off its data output stage. A master, which lost arbitration can generate clock pulses
until the end of the data byte where it lost arbitration.
When the master devices are addressing the same
device, arbitration continues into the data.
FIGURE 9-14:
MULTI-MASTER
ARBITRATION
(TWO MASTERS)
Clock Synchronization
Clock synchronization occurs after the devices have
started arbitration. This is performed using a
wired-AND connection to the SCL line. A high to low
transition on the SCL line causes the concerned
devices to start counting off their low period. Once a
device clock has gone low, it will hold the SCL line low
until its SCL high state is reached. The low to high transition of this clock may not change the state of the SCL
line, if another device clock is still within its low period.
The SCL line is held low by the device with the longest
low period. Devices with shorter low periods enter a
high wait state, until the SCL line comes high. When the
SCL line comes high, all devices start counting off their
high periods. The first device to complete its high
period will pull the SCL line low. The SCL line high time
is determined by the device with the shortest high
period, Figure 9-15.

Masters that also incorporate the slave function and
have lost arbitration, must immediately switch over to
Slave-Receiver mode. This is because the winning
master-transmitter may be addressing it.
Arbitration is not allowed between:
• A Repeated START condition
• A STOP condition and a data bit
• A Repeated START condition and a STOP
condition
Care needs to be taken to ensure that these conditions
do not occur.

SSP I 2C Operation
The SSP module in I 2C mode fully implements all slave
functions, except general call support, and provides
interrupts on START and STOP bits in hardware to
facilitate firmware implementations of the master functions. The SSP module implements the standard mode
specifications as well as 7-bit and 10-bit addressing.
Two pins are used for data transfer. These are the
RC3/SCK/SCL pin, which is the clock (SCL), and the
RC4/SDI/SDA pin, which is the data (SDA). The user
must configure these pins as inputs or outputs through
the TRISC<4:3> bits. The SSP module functions are
enabled by setting SSP enable bit, SSPEN
(SSPCON<5>).

Selection of any I 2C mode, with the SSPEN bit set,
forces the SCL and SDA pins to be open drain, provided these pins are programmed to inputs by setting
the appropriate TRISC bits.
The SSPSTAT register gives the status of the data
transfer. This information includes detection of a
START or STOP bit, specifies if the received byte was
data or address, if the next byte is the completion of
10-bit address, and if this will be a read or write data
transfer. The SSPSTAT register is read only.

The SSPCON register allows control of the I 2C operation. Four mode selection bits (SSPCON<3:0>) allow
one of the following I 2C modes to be selected:
Set, Reset
S, P bits
(SSPSTAT reg)
The SSP module has five registers for I2C operation.
These are the:
The SSPBUF is the register to which transfer data is
written to or read from. The SSPSR register shifts the
data in or out of the device. In receive operations, the
SSPBUF and SSPSR create a doubled buffered
receiver. This allows reception of the next byte to begin
before reading the last byte of received data. When the
complete byte is received, it is transferred to the
SSPBUF register and flag bit SSPIF is set. If another
complete byte is received before the SSPBUF register
is read, a receiver overflow has occurred and bit
SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) is set and the byte in the
SSPSR is lost.
The SSPADD register holds the slave address. In
10-bit mode, the user needs to write the high byte of the
address (1111 0 A9 A8 0). Following the high byte
address match, the low byte of the address needs to be
loaded (A7:A0).

9.3.1
SLAVE MODE
In Slave mode, the SCL and SDA pins must be configured as inputs (TRISC<4:3> set). The SSP module will
override the input state with the output data when
required (slave-transmitter).
When an address is matched or the data transfer after
an address match is received, the hardware automatically will generate the Acknowledge (ACK) pulse, and
then load the SSPBUF register with the received value
currently in the SSPSR register.
There are certain conditions that will cause the SSP
module not to give this ACK pulse. These are if either
(or both):
a)
b)
The buffer full bit BF (SSPSTAT<0>) was set
before the transfer was received.
The overflow bit SSPOV (SSPCON<6>) was set
before the transfer was received.
In this case, the SSPSR register value is not loaded
into the SSPBUF, but bit SSPIF (PIR1<3>) is set.
Table 9-3 shows what happens when a data transfer
byte is received, given the status of bits BF and
SSPOV. The shaded cells show the condition where
user software did not properly clear the overflow condition. Flag bit BF is cleared by reading the SSPBUF register while bit SSPOV is cleared through software.
The SCL clock input must have a minimum high and
low time for proper operation. The high and low times
of the I2C specification as well as the requirement of
the SSP module is shown in timing parameter #100
and parameter #101.
9.3.1.1
address is compared on the falling edge of the eighth
clock (SCL) pulse. If the addresses match, and the BF
and SSPOV bits are clear, the following events occur:
a)
b)
c)
d)
In 10-bit Address mode, two address bytes need to be
received by the slave (Figure 9-8). The five Most Significant bits (MSbs) of the first address byte specify if
this is a 10-bit address. Bit R/W (SSPSTAT<2>) must
specify a write so the slave device will receive the second address byte. For a 10-bit address the first byte
would equal ‘1111 0 A9 A8 0’, where A9 and A8 are
the two MSbs of the address. The sequence of events
for a 10-bit address is as follows, with steps 7- 9 for
slave-transmitter:

Once the SSP module has been enabled, it waits for a
START condition to occur. Following the START condition, the 8-bits are shifted into the SSPSR register. All
incoming bits are sampled with the rising edge of the
clock (SCL) line. The value of register SSPSR<7:1> is
compared to the value of the SSPADD register. The

When the address byte overflow condition exists, then

When the R/W bit of the address byte is clear and an

register is cleared. The received address is loaded into

Transmission
An SSP interrupt is generated for each data transfer
byte. Flag bit SSPIF must be cleared in software, and
the SSPSTAT register is used to determine the status
of the byte. Flag bit SSPIF is set on the falling edge of
the ninth clock pulse.
When the R/W bit of the incoming address byte is set
and an address match occurs, the R/W bit of the
SSPSTAT register is set. The received address is
loaded into the SSPBUF register. The ACK pulse will
be sent on the ninth bit, and pin RC3/SCK/SCL is held
low. The transmit data must be loaded into the
SSPBUF register, which also loads the SSPSR register. Then, pin RC3/SCK/SCL should be enabled by setting bit CKP (SSPCON<4>). The master must monitor
the SCL pin prior to asserting another clock pulse. The
slave devices may be holding off the master by stretching the clock. The eight data bits are shifted out on the
falling edge of the SCL input. This ensures that the
SDA signal is valid during the SCL high time
(Figure 9-18).

As a slave-transmitter, the ACK pulse from the master-receiver is latched on the rising edge of the ninth
SCL input pulse. If the SDA line was high (not ACK),
then the data transfer is complete. When the ACK is
latched by the slave, the slave logic is reset and the
slave then monitors for another occurrence of the
START bit. If the SDA line was low (ACK), the transmit
data must be loaded into the SSPBUF register, which
also loads the SSPSR register. Then, pin
RC3/SCK/SCL should be enabled by setting bit CKP.

9.3.2
MASTER MODE
9.3.3
Master mode of operation is supported, in firmware,
using interrupt generation on the detection of the
START and STOP conditions. The STOP (P) and
START (S) bits are cleared from a RESET, or when the
SSP module is disabled. The STOP and START bits
will toggle based on the START and STOP conditions.
Control of the I 2C bus may be taken when the P bit is
set, or the bus is idle with both the S and P bits clear.
MULTI-MASTER MODE
In Multi-Master mode, the interrupt generation on the
detection of the START and STOP conditions allows
the determination of when the bus is free. The STOP
(P) and START (S) bits are cleared from a RESET or
when the SSP module is disabled. The STOP and
START bits will toggle based on the START and STOP
conditions. Control of the I 2C bus may be taken when
bit P (SSPSTAT<4>) is set, or the bus is idle, with both
the S and P bits clear. When the bus is busy, enabling
the SSP interrupt will generate the interrupt when the
STOP condition occurs.
In Master mode, the SCL and SDA lines are manipulated by clearing the corresponding TRISC<4:3> bit(s).
The output level is always low, irrespective of the
value(s) in PORTC<4:3>. So when transmitting data, a
'1' data bit must have the TRISC<4> bit set (input) and
a '0' data bit must have the TRISC<4> bit cleared (output). The same scenario is true for the SCL line with the
TRISC<3> bit.
In multi-master operation, the SDA line must be monitored to see if the signal level is the expected output
level. This check only needs to be done when a high
level is output. If a high level is expected and a low level
is present, the device needs to release the SDA and
SCL lines (set TRISC<4:3>). There are two stages
where this arbitration can be lost, they are:
The following events will cause SSP Interrupt Flag bit,
SSPIF, to be set (SSP Interrupt if enabled):
• Address Transfer
• Data Transfer
• START condition
• STOP condition
• Data transfer byte transmitted/received
When the slave logic is enabled, the slave continues to
receive. If arbitration was lost during the address transfer stage, communication to the device may be in
progress. If addressed, an ACK pulse will be generated. If arbitration was lost during the data transfer
stage, the device will need to re-transfer the data at a
later time.
Master mode of operation can be done with either the
Slave mode idle (SSPM3:SSPM0 = 1011), or with the
slave active. When both Master and Slave modes are
enabled, the software needs to differentiate the
source(s) of the interrupt.

ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The A/D module has four registers. These registers
are:
•
•
•
•
The Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converter module has five
inputs.
The analog input charges a sample and hold capacitor.
The output of the sample and hold capacitor is the input
into the converter. The converter then generates a digital result of this analog level via successive approximation. The A/D conversion of the analog input signal
results in a corresponding 10-bit digital number. The
A/D module has high and low voltage reference input,
that is software selectable to some combination of VDD,
VSS, RA2 or RA3.
The ADCON0 register, shown in Register 10-1, controls the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1
register, shown in Register 10-2, configures the functions of the port pins. The port pins can be configured
as analog inputs (RA3 can also be the voltage reference), or as digital I/O.
Additional information on using the A/D module can be
found in the PIC® Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manual (DS33023).
The A/D converter has a unique feature of being able
to operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. To
operate in SLEEP, the A/D clock must be derived from
the A/D’s internal RC oscillator.

After the A/D module has been configured as desired,
the selected channel must be acquired before the conversion is started. The analog input channels must
have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs.

A/D Acquisition Requirements
For the A/D converter to meet its specified accuracy,
the charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) must be allowed
to fully charge to the input channel voltage level. The
analog input model is shown in Figure 10-2. The
source impedance (RS) and the internal sampling
switch (RSS) impedance directly affect the time
required to charge the capacitor CHOLD. The sampling
switch (RSS) impedance varies over the device voltage
(VDD), see Figure 10-2. The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 10 k. As
EQUATION 10-1:
TACQ =
=
=
TC =
=
=
TACQ =
=
the impedance is decreased, the acquisition time may
be decreased. After the analog input channel is
selected (changed), this acquisition must be done
before the conversion can be started.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time,
Equation 10-1 may be used. This equation assumes
that 1/2 LSb error is used (1024 steps for the A/D). The
1/2 LSb error is the maximum error allowed for the A/D
to meet its specified resolution.
To calculate the minimum acquisition time, TACQ, see
the PIC® Mid-Range Reference Manual (DS33023).

Note 1: The reference voltage (VREF) has no effect on the equation, since it cancels itself out.
2: The charge holding capacitor (CHOLD) is not discharged after each conversion.
3: The maximum recommended impedance for analog sources is 10 k. This is required to meet the pin leakage specification.
4: After a conversion has completed, a 2.0TAD delay must complete before acquisition can begin again.
During this time, the holding capacitor is not connected to the selected A/D input channel.

Configuring Analog Port Pins
10.4
The ADCON1 and TRIS registers control the operation
of the A/D port pins. The port pins that are desired as
analog inputs must have their corresponding TRIS bits
set (input). If the TRIS bit is cleared (output), the digital
output level (VOH or VOL) will be converted.
Clearing the GO/DONE bit during a conversion will
abort the current conversion. The A/D result register
pair will NOT be updated with the partially completed
A/D conversion sample. That is, the ADRESH:ADRESL
registers will continue to contain the value of the last
completed conversion (or the last value written to the
ADRESH:ADRESL registers). After the A/D conversion
is aborted, a 2TAD wait is required before the next
acquisition is started. After this 2TAD wait, acquisition
on the selected channel is automatically started. After
this, the GO/DONE bit can be set to start the
conversion.
The A/D operation is independent of the state of the
CHS<2:0> bits and the TRIS bits.
Note 1: When reading the port register, any pin
configured as an analog input channel will
read as cleared (a low level). Pins configured as digital inputs will convert an analog input. Analog levels on a digitally
configured input will not affect the conversion accuracy.
In Figure 10-3, after the GO bit is set, the first time segment has a minimum of TCY and a maximum of TAD.
Note:
2: Analog levels on any pin that is defined as
a digital input (including the AN<4:0>
pins), may cause the input buffer to consume current that is out of the device
specifications.

A/D RESULT REGISTERS
The ADRESH:ADRESL register pair is the location
where the 10-bit A/D result is loaded at the completion
of the A/D conversion. This register pair is 16-bits wide.
The A/D module gives the flexibility to left or right justify
the 10-bit result in the 16-bit result register. The A/D
Format Select bit (ADFM) controls this justification.
Figure 10-4 shows the operation of the A/D result justification. The extra bits are loaded with ’0’s’. When an
A/D result will not overwrite these locations (A/D disable), these registers may be used as two general purpose 8-bit registers.

A/D Operation During SLEEP
Turning off the A/D places the A/D module in its lowest
current consumption state.
The A/D module can operate during SLEEP mode. This
requires that the A/D clock source be set to RC
(ADCS<1:0> = 11). When the RC clock source is
selected, the A/D module waits one instruction cycle
before starting the conversion. This allows the SLEEP
instruction to be executed, which eliminates all digital
switching noise from the conversion. When the conversion is completed, the GO/DONE bit will be cleared and
the result loaded into the ADRES register. If the A/D
interrupt is enabled, the device will wake-up from
SLEEP. If the A/D interrupt is not enabled, the A/D module will then be turned off, although the ADON bit will
remain set.
Note:
10.6
Address
0Bh
For the A/D module to operate in SLEEP,
the A/D clock source must be set to RC
(ADCS<1:0> = 11). To allow the conversion to occur during SLEEP, ensure the
SLEEP instruction immediately follows the
instruction that sets the GO/DONE bit.
Effects of a RESET
A device RESET forces all registers to their RESET
state. This forces the A/D module to be turned off, and
any conversion is aborted. All A/D input pins are configured as analog inputs.
When the A/D clock source is another clock option (not
RC), a SLEEP instruction will cause the present conversion to be aborted and the A/D module to be turned off,
though the ADON bit will remain set.

LCD MODULE
The LCD module generates the timing control to drive
a static or multiplexed LCD panel, with support for up to
32 segments multiplexed with up to four commons. It
also provides control of the LCD pixel data.
The interface to the module consists of 3 control registers (LCDCON, LCDSE, and LCDPS), used to define
the timing requirements of the LCD panel and up to 16
LCD data registers (LCD00-LCD15) that represent the
array of the pixel data. In normal operation, the control
registers are configured to match the LCD panel being
used. Primarily, the initialization information consists of
REGISTER 11-1:
selecting the number of commons required by the LCD
panel, and then specifying the LCD frame clock rate to
be used by the panel.
Once the module is initialized for the LCD panel, the
individual bits of the LCD data registers are cleared/set
to represent a clear/dark pixel, respectively.
Once the module is configured, the LCDEN
(LCDCON<7>) bit is used to enable or disable the LCD
module. The LCD panel can also operate during
SLEEP by clearing the SLPEN (LCDCON<6>) bit.
Figure 11-2 through Figure 11-5 provides waveforms
for static, half-duty cycle, one-third-duty cycle, and
quarter-duty cycle drives.

LCD Timing
The second source is the Timer1 external oscillator.
This oscillator provides a lower speed clock which may
be used to continue running the LCD while the processor is in SLEEP. It is assumed that the frequency provided on this oscillator will be 32 kHz. To use the
Timer1 oscillator as a LCD module clock source, it is
only necessary to set the T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>) bit.
The LCD module has 3 possible clock source inputs
and supports static, 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4 multiplexing.
TIMING CLOCK SOURCE
SELECTION
The clock sources for the LCD timing generation are:
The third source is the system clock divided by 256.
This divider ratio is chosen to provide about 32 kHz
output when the external oscillator is 8 MHz. The
divider is not programmable. Instead the LCDPS register is used to set the LCD frame clock rate.
• Internal RC oscillator
• Timer1 oscillator
• System clock divided by 256
The first timing source is an internal RC oscillator which
runs at a nominal frequency of 14 kHz. This oscillator
provides a lower speed clock which may be used to
continue running the LCD while the processor is in
SLEEP. The RC oscillator will power-down when it is
not selected or when the LCD module is disabled.

LCD Interrupts
The LCD timing generation provides an interrupt that
defines the LCD frame timing. This interrupt can be
used to coordinate the writing of the pixel data with the
start of a new frame. Writing pixel data at the frame
boundary allows a visually crisp transition of the image.
This interrupt can also be used to synchronize external
events to the LCD. For example, the interface to an
external segment driver, such as a Microchip AY0438,
can be synchronized for segment data update to the
LCD frame.
FIGURE 11-7:
A new frame is defined to begin at the leading edge of
the COM0 common signal. The interrupt will be set
immediately after the LCD controller completes
accessing all pixel data required for a frame. This will
occur at a fixed interval before the frame boundary
(TFINT), as shown in Figure 11-7. The LCD controller
will begin to access data for the next frame within the
interval from the interrupt to when the controller begins
to access data after the interrupt (TFWR). New data
must be written within TFWR, as this is when the LCD
controller will begin to access the data for the next
frame.

Operation During SLEEP
The LCD module can operate during SLEEP. The
selection is controlled by bit SLPEN (LCDCON<6>).
Setting the SLPEN bit allows the LCD module to go to
SLEEP. Clearing the SLPEN bit allows the module to
continue to operate during SLEEP.
If a SLEEP instruction is executed and SLPEN = '1', the
LCD module will cease all functions and go into a very
low current consumption mode. The module will stop
operation immediately and drive the minimum LCD
voltage on both segment and common lines. Figure
11-8 shows this operation. To ensure that the LCD completes the frame, the SLEEP instruction should be executed immediately after a LCD frame boundary. The
LCD interrupt can be used to determine the frame
boundary. See Section 11.2 for the formulas to calculate the delay.
FIGURE 11-8:
If a SLEEP instruction is executed and SLPEN = '0', the
module will continue to display the current contents of
the LCDD registers. To allow the module to continue
operation while in SLEEP, the clock source must be
either the internal RC oscillator or Timer1 external
oscillator. While in SLEEP, the LCD data cannot be
changed. The LCD module current consumption will
not decrease in this mode, however, the overall consumption of the device will be lower due to shut-down
of the core and other peripheral functions.
Note:
The internal RC oscillator or external
Timer1 oscillator must be used to operate
the LCD module during SLEEP.

pump. The charge pump boosts VLCD1 into VLCD2 =
2*VLCD1 and VLCD3 = 3 * VLCD1. When the charge
pump is not operating, Vlcd3 will be internally tied to
VDD. See the Electrical Specifications section for
charge pump capacitor and potentiometer values.
There are two methods for LCD voltage generation:
internal charge pump, or external resistor ladder.
11.5.1
CHARGE PUMP
11.5.2
The LCD charge pump is shown in Figure 11-9. The
1.0V - 2.3V regulator will establish a stable base voltage from the varying battery voltage. This regulator is
adjustable through the range by connecting a variable
external resistor from VLCDADJ to ground. The potentiometer provides contrast adjustment for the LCD. This
base voltage is connected to VLCD1 on the charge
FIGURE 11-9:
EXTERNAL R-LADDER
The LCD module can also use an external resistor ladder (R-Ladder) to generate the LCD voltages.
Figure 11-9 shows external connections for static and
1/3 bias. The VGEN (LCDCON<4>) bit must be cleared
to use an external R-Ladder.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
What sets a microcontroller apart from other processors are special circuits to deal with the needs of real
time applications. The PIC16CXXX family has a host of
such features, intended to maximize system reliability,
minimize cost through elimination of external components, provide power saving operating modes and offer
code protection. These are:
• Oscillator Selection
• RESET
- Power-on Reset (POR)
- Power-up Timer (PWRT)
- Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
- Brown-out Reset (BOR)
• Interrupts
• Watchdog Timer (WDT)
• SLEEP
• Code Protection
• ID Locations
• In-Circuit Serial Programming
RESET while the power supply stabilizes. With these
two timers on-chip, most applications need no external
RESET circuitry.
SLEEP mode is designed to offer a very low current
power-down mode. The user can wake-up from SLEEP
through external RESET, Watchdog Timer Wake-up, or
through an interrupt.
Several oscillator options are also made available to
allow the part to fit the application. The RC oscillator
option saves system cost, while the LP crystal option
saves power. A set of configuration bits are used to
select various options.
12.1
Configuration Bits
The configuration bits can be programmed (read as '0'),
or left unprogrammed (read as '1'), to select various
device configurations. These bits are mapped in program memory location 2007h.
The user will note that address 2007h is beyond the user
program memory space and can be accessed only during programming.
The PIC16CXXX has a Watchdog Timer which can be
shut-off only through configuration bits. It runs off its
own RC oscillator for added reliability.
There are two timers that offer necessary delays on
power-up. One is the Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST),
intended to keep the chip in RESET until the crystal
oscillator is stable. The other is the Power-up Timer
(PWRT), which provides a fixed delay of 72 ms (nominal) on power-up only, designed to keep the part in

CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR/CERAMIC
RESONATORS
In XT, LP, or HS modes a crystal or ceramic resonator
is connected to the OSC1/CLKIN and OSC2/CLKOUT
pins to establish oscillation (Figure 12-1). The
PIC16CXXX oscillator design requires the use of a parallel cut crystal. Use of a series cut crystal may give a
frequency out of the crystal manufacturers specifications. When in XT, LP, or HS modes, the device can
have an external clock source to drive the
OSC1/CLKIN pin (Figure 12-2).

EXTERNAL CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
CIRCUIT
Either a prepackaged oscillator can be used, or a simple oscillator circuit with TTL gates can be built. Prepackaged oscillators provide a wide operating range
and better stability. A well designed crystal oscillator
will provide good performance with TTL gates. Two
types of crystal oscillator circuits can be used: one with
series resonance, or one with parallel resonance.
Figure 12-3 shows implementation of a parallel resonant oscillator circuit. The circuit is designed to use the
fundamental frequency of the crystal. The 74AS04
inverter performs the 180-degree phase shift that a parallel oscillator requires. The 4.7 k resistor provides
the negative feedback for stability. The 10 k potentiometer biases the 74AS04 in the linear region. This
could be used for external oscillator designs.

This circuit is also designed to use the fundamental frequency of the crystal. The inverter performs a

circuit. The 330 k resistors provide the negative feedback to bias the inverters in their linear region.
FIGURE 12-4:
RC OSCILLATOR
For timing insensitive applications, the “RC” device
option offers additional cost savings. The RC oscillator
frequency is a function of the supply voltage, the resistor (REXT) and capacitor (CEXT) values, and the operating temperature. In addition to this, the oscillator
frequency will vary from unit to unit due to normal process parameter variation. Furthermore, the difference
in lead frame capacitance between package types will
also affect the oscillation frequency, especially for low
CEXT values. The user also needs to take into account
variation due to tolerance of external R and C components used. Figure 12-5 shows how the R/C combination is connected to the PIC16CXXX. For REXT values
below 2.2 k, the oscillator operation may become
unstable, or stop completely. For very high REXT values
(e.g. 1 M), the oscillator becomes sensitive to noise,
humidity and leakage. Thus, we recommend to keep
REXT between 3 k and 100 k.
Although the oscillator will operate with no external
capacitor (CEXT = 0 pF), we recommend using values
above 20 pF for noise and stability reasons. With no or
small external capacitance, the oscillation frequency
can vary dramatically due to changes in external
capacitances, such as PCB trace capacitance, or package lead frame capacitance.
See characterization data for desired device for RC frequency variation from part to part, due to normal process variation. The variation is larger for larger R (since
leakage current variation will affect RC frequency more
for large R) and for smaller C (since variation of input
capacitance will affect RC frequency more).

See characterization data for desired device for variation of oscillator frequency, due to VDD for given
REXT/CEXT values, as well as frequency variation due
to operating temperature for given R, C, and VDD
values.
The oscillator frequency, divided by 4, is available on
the OSC2/CLKOUT pin, and can be used for test purposes or to synchronize other logic (see Figure 1-2 for
waveform).

RESET
The PIC16C9XX differentiates between various kinds
of RESET:
•
•
•
•
•
Power-on Reset (POR)
MCLR Reset during normal operation
MCLR Reset during SLEEP
WDT Reset (normal operation)
Brown-out Reset (BOR)
A simplified block diagram of the On-Chip Reset Circuit
is shown in Figure 12-6.
Some registers are not affected in any RESET condition; their status is unknown on POR and unchanged in
any other RESET. Most other registers are reset to a
“RESET state” on Power-on Reset (POR), on the
MCLR and WDT Reset, and on MCLR Reset during
FIGURE 12-6:
SLEEP. They are not affected by a WDT Wake-up,
which is viewed as the resumption of normal operation.
The TO and PD bits are set or cleared differently in different RESET situations, as indicated in Table 12-4.
These bits are used in software to determine the nature
of the RESET. See Table 12-6 for a full description of
RESET states of all registers.
The devices all have a MCLR noise filter in the MCLR
Reset path. The filter will detect and ignore small
pulses.
It should be noted that a WDT Reset does not drive
MCLR pin low.

12.4.4
Power-on Reset (POR),
Power-up Timer (PWRT),
Brown-out Reset (BOR) and
Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST)
The configuration bit, BOREN, can enable or disable
the Brown-out Reset circuit. If VDD falls below VBOR
(parameter D005, about 4V) for longer than TBOR
(parameter #35, about 100S), the brown-out situation
will reset the device. If VDD falls below VBOR for less
than TBOR, a RESET may not occur.
POWER-ON RESET (POR)
A Power-on Reset pulse is generated on-chip when
VDD rise is detected (in the range of 1.5V - 2.1V). To
take advantage of the POR, just tie the MCLR pin
directly (or through a resistor) to VDD. This will eliminate external RC components usually needed to create
a Power-on Reset. A maximum rise time for VDD is
specified. See Electrical Specifications for details.
Once the brown-out occurs, the device will remain in
Brown-out Reset until VDD rises above VBOR. The
Power-up Timer, if enabled, then keeps the device in
RESET for TPWRT (parameter #33, about 72mS). If
VDD should fall below VBOR during TPWRT, the
Brown-out Reset process will restart when VDD rises
above VBOR with the Power-up Timer Reset. The
Power-up Timer is enabled separately from Brown-out
Reset.
When the device starts normal operation (exits the
RESET condition), device operating parameters (voltage, frequency, temperature, etc.) must be met to
ensure operation. If these conditions are not met, the
device must be held in RESET until the operating conditions are met.
12.4.5
POWER-UP TIMER (PWRT)
The Power-up Timer provides a fixed 72 ms nominal
time-out on power-up only, from the POR. The
Power-up Timer operates on an internal RC oscillator.
The chip is kept in RESET as long as the PWRT is
active. The PWRT’s time delay allows VDD to rise to an
acceptable level. A configuration bit is provided to
enable/disable the PWRT.
Since the time-outs occur from the POR pulse, if MCLR
is kept low long enough, the time-outs will expire. Then
bringing MCLR high will begin execution immediately
(Figure 12-8). This is useful for testing purposes or to
synchronize more than one PIC16CXXX device operating in parallel.
The power-up time delay will vary from chip to chip due
to VDD, temperature, and process variation. See DC
parameters for details.
12.4.3
TIME-OUT SEQUENCE
On power-up, the time-out sequence is as follows:
First, PWRT time-out is invoked after the POR time
delay has expired. Then, OST is activated. The total
time-out will vary based on oscillator configuration and
the status of the PWRT. For example, in RC mode with
the PWRT disabled, there will be no time-out at all.
Figure 12-7, Figure 12-8, and Figure 12-9 depict
time-out sequences on power-up.
For additional information, refer to Application Note
AN607, “Power-up Trouble Shooting.”
12.4.2
BROWN-OUT RESET (BOR)
Table 12-5 shows the RESET conditions for some special function registers, while Table 12-6 shows the
RESET conditions for all the registers.
OSCILLATOR START-UP TIMER
(OST)
12.4.6
The Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST), if enabled, provides 1024 oscillator cycle (from OSC1 input) delay
after the PWRT delay (if the PWRT is enabled). This
helps to ensure that the crystal oscillator or resonator
has started and stabilized.
POWER CONTROL/STATUS
REGISTER (PCON)
The Power Control/Status Register, PCON, has up to
two bits depending upon the device.
Bit0 is Brown-out Reset Status bit, BOR. Bit BOR is
unknown on a Power-on Reset. It must then be set by
the user and checked on subsequent RESETS to see if
bit BOR cleared, indicating a BOR occurred. When the
Brown-out Reset is disabled, the state of the BOR bit is
unpredictable and is, therefore, not valid at any time.
The OST time-out is invoked only for XT, LP and HS
modes and only on Power-on Reset or wake-up from
SLEEP.
Bit1 is Power-on Reset Status bit POR. It is cleared on
a Power-on Reset and unaffected otherwise. The user
must set this bit following a Power-on Reset.

Interrupts
The PIC16C925/926 family has nine sources of
interrupt:
• External interrupt RB0/INT
• TMR0 overflow interrupt
• PORTB change interrupts
(pins RB7:RB4)
• A/D Interrupt
• TMR1 overflow interrupt
• TMR2 matches period interrupt
• CCP1 interrupt
• Synchronous serial port interrupt
• LCD module interrupt
Individual interrupt flag bits are set, regardless of the status of their corresponding
mask bit, or the GIE bit.
A global interrupt enable bit, GIE (INTCON<7>),
enables (if set) all unmasked interrupts, or disables (if
cleared) all interrupts. When bit GIE is enabled, and an
interrupt’s flag bit and mask bit are set, the interrupt will
vector immediately. Individual interrupts can be disabled through their corresponding enable bits in various registers. Individual interrupt bits are set,
regardless of the status of the GIE bit. The GIE bit is
cleared on RESET.
FIGURE 12-10:
The RB0/INT pin interrupt, the RB port change interrupt
and the TMR0 overflow interrupt flags are contained in
the INTCON register.
The peripheral interrupt flags are contained in the special function register, PIR1. The corresponding interrupt enable bits are contained in special function
register, PIE1, and the peripheral interrupt enable bit is
contained in special function register, INTCON.
The interrupt control register (INTCON) records individual interrupt requests in flag bits. It also has individual
and global interrupt enable bits.
Note:
The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits
the interrupt routine as well as sets the GIE bit, which
re-enables interrupts.
When an interrupt is responded to, the GIE bit is
cleared to disable any further interrupts, the return
address is pushed onto the stack and the PC is loaded
with 0004h. Once in the Interrupt Service Routine the
source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by polling
the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be
cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to
avoid recursive interrupts.
For external interrupt events, such as the RB0/INT pin
or RB Port change interrupt, the interrupt latency will be
three or four instruction cycles. The exact latency
depends when the interrupt event occurs
(Figure 12-11). The latency is the same for one or two
cycle instructions. Individual interrupt flag bits are set,
regardless of the status of their corresponding mask
bit, PEIE bit, or the GIE bit.

INT INTERRUPT
External interrupt on RB0/INT pin is edge triggered:
either rising if bit INTEDG (OPTION_REG<6>) is set,
or falling, if the INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge
appears on the RB0/INT pin, flag bit INTF
(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by
clearing enable bit INTE (INTCON<4>). Flag bit INTF
must be cleared in software in the Interrupt Service
Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The INT interrupt can wake-up the processor from SLEEP, if bit INTE
was set prior to going into SLEEP. The status of global
interrupt enable bit, GIE, decides whether or not the
processor branches to the interrupt vector following
wake-up. See Section 12.8 for details on SLEEP mode.
DS39544B-page 108
TMR0 INTERRUPT
An overflow (FFh  00h) in the TMR0 register will set
flag bit, TMR0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit,
TMR0IE (INTCON<5>) (Section 5.0).
12.5.3
PORTB INTCON CHANGE
An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF
(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled
by setting/clearing enable bit, RBIE (INTCON<4>)
(Section 4.2).

Context Saving During Interrupts
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on the stack. Typically, users may wish to save key registers during an interrupt, i.e., the W and STATUS registers. This will have to be implemented in software.
Example 12-1 stores and restores the STATUS, W, and
PCLATH registers. The register, W_TEMP, must be
defined in each bank and must be defined at the same
offset from the bank base address (i.e., if W_TEMP is
defined at 0x20 in bank 0, it must also be defined at
0xA0 in bank 1).

12.7
Watchdog Timer (WDT)
assigned to the WDT under software control, by writing
to the OPTION register. Thus, time-out periods up to
2.3 seconds can be realized.
The Watchdog Timer is a free running on-chip RC oscillator, which does not require any external components.
This RC oscillator is separate from the RC oscillator of
the OSC1/CLKIN pin. That means that the WDT will
run, even if the clock on the OSC1/CLKIN and
OSC2/CLKOUT pins of the device has been stopped,
for example, by execution of a SLEEP instruction. During normal operation, a WDT time-out generates a
device RESET (Watchdog Timer Reset). If the device is
in SLEEP mode, a WDT time-out causes the device to
wake-up and continue with normal operation (Watchdog Timer Wake-up). The WDT can be permanently
disabled by clearing configuration bit WDTE
(Section 12.1).
12.7.1
The CLRWDT and SLEEP instructions clear the WDT
and the postscaler, if assigned to the WDT, prevent it
from timing out and generating a device RESET
condition.
The TO bit in the STATUS register will be cleared upon
a Watchdog Timer time-out.
12.7.2
It should also be taken into account that under worst
case conditions (VDD = Min., Temperature = Max., and
Max. WDT prescaler) it may take several seconds
before a WDT time-out occurs.
WDT PERIOD
Note:
The WDT has a nominal time-out period of 18 ms (with
no prescaler). The time-out periods vary with temperature, VDD and process variations from part to part (see
DC specs). If longer time-out periods are desired, a
prescaler with a division ratio of up to 1:128 can be
FIGURE 12-12:
WDT PROGRAMMING
CONSIDERATIONS
When a CLRWDT instruction is executed
and the prescaler is assigned to the WDT,
the prescaler count will be cleared, but the
prescaler assignment is not changed.

Power-down Mode (SLEEP)
Power-down mode is entered by executing a SLEEP
instruction.
If enabled, the Watchdog Timer will be cleared but
keeps running, the PD bit (STATUS<3>) is cleared, the
TO (STATUS<4>) bit is set, and the oscillator driver is
turned off. The I/O ports maintain the status they had,
before the SLEEP instruction was executed (driving
high, low, or hi-impedance).
For lowest current consumption in this mode, place all
I/O pins at either VDD, or VSS, ensure no external circuitry is drawing current from the I/O pin, power-down
the A/D, disable external clocks. Pull all I/O pins that
are hi-impedance inputs, high or low externally, to avoid
switching currents caused by floating inputs. The
T0CKI input should also be at VDD or VSS for lowest
current consumption. The contribution from on-chip
pull-ups on PORTB should also be considered.
The MCLR pin must be at a logic high level (VIHMC).
12.8.1
WAKE-UP FROM SLEEP
The device can wake-up from SLEEP through one of
the following events:
1.
2.
3.
External RESET input on MCLR pin.
Watchdog Timer Wake-up (if WDT was
enabled).
Interrupt from RB0/INT pin, RB port change, or
peripheral interrupt.
External MCLR Reset will cause a device RESET. All
other events are considered a continuation of program
execution and cause a “wake-up”. The TO and PD bits
in the STATUS register can be used to determine the
cause of device RESET. The PD bit, which is set on
power-up is cleared when SLEEP is invoked. The TO bit
is cleared if a WDT time-out occurred (and caused
wake-up).
The following peripheral interrupts can wake the device
from SLEEP:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Other peripherals can not generate interrupts since
during SLEEP, no on-chip Q clocks are present.
When the SLEEP instruction is being executed, the next
instruction (PC + 1) is pre-fetched. For the device to
wake-up through an interrupt event, the corresponding
interrupt enable bit must be set (enabled). Wake-up is
regardless of the state of the GIE bit. If the GIE bit is
clear (disabled), the device continues execution at the
instruction after the SLEEP instruction. If the GIE bit is
set (enabled), the device executes the instruction after
the SLEEP instruction and then branches to the interrupt address (0004h). In cases where the execution of
the instruction following SLEEP is not desirable, the
user should have a NOP after the SLEEP instruction.
12.8.2
WAKE-UP USING INTERRUPTS
When global interrupts are disabled (GIE cleared) and
any interrupt source has both its interrupt enable bit
and interrupt flag bit set, one of the following will occur:
• If the interrupt occurs before the execution of a
SLEEP instruction, the SLEEP instruction will complete as a NOP. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
postscaler will not be cleared, the TO bit will not
be set and PD bits will not be cleared.
• If the interrupt occurs during or after the execution of a SLEEP instruction, the device will immediately wake-up from SLEEP. The SLEEP
instruction will be completely executed before the
wake-up. Therefore, the WDT and WDT
postscaler will be cleared, the TO bit will be set
and the PD bit will be cleared.
Even if the flag bits were checked before executing a
SLEEP instruction, it may be possible for flag bits to
become set before the SLEEP instruction completes. To
determine whether a SLEEP instruction executed, test
the PD bit. If the PD bit is set, the SLEEP instruction
was executed as a NOP.
To ensure that the WDT is cleared, a CLRWDT instruction should be executed before a SLEEP instruction.
TMR1 interrupt. Timer1 must be operating as an
asynchronous counter.
SSP (START/STOP) bit detect interrupt.
SSP transmit or receive in Slave mode
(SPI/I2C).
CCP Capture mode interrupt.
A/D conversion (when A/D clock source is RC).
Special event trigger (Timer1 in Asynchronous

In-Circuit Serial Programming
PIC16CXXX microcontrollers can be serially programmed while in the end application circuit. This is
simply done with two lines for clock and data, and three
other lines for power, ground, and the programming
voltage. This allows customers to manufacture boards
with unprogrammed devices, and then program the
microcontroller just before shipping the product. This
also allows the most recent firmware or a custom firmware to be programmed.

INSTRUCTION SET SUMMARY
Each PIC16CXXX instruction is a 14-bit word divided
into an OPCODE which specifies the instruction type
and one or more operands which further specify the
operation of the instruction. The PIC16CXXX instruction set summary in Table 13-2 lists byte-oriented, bitoriented, and literal and control operations.
Table 13-1 shows the opcode field descriptions.
The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped
into three basic categories:
• Byte-oriented operations
• Bit-oriented operations
• Literal and control operations
For byte-oriented instructions, 'f' represents a file register designator and 'd' represents a destination designator. The file register designator specifies which file
register is to be used by the instruction.
The destination designator specifies where the result of
the operation is to be placed. If 'd' is zero, the result is
placed in the W register. If 'd' is one, the result is placed
in the file register specified in the instruction.
For bit-oriented instructions, 'b' represents a bit field
designator which selects the number of the bit affected
by the operation, while 'f' represents the address of the
file in which the bit is located.
For literal and control operations, 'k' represents an
eight or eleven bit constant or literal value.

All instructions are executed within one single instruction cycle, unless a conditional test is true, or the program counter is changed, as a result of an instruction.
In this case, the execution takes two instruction cycles,
with the second cycle executed as a NOP. One instruction cycle consists of four oscillator periods. Thus, for
an oscillator frequency of 4 MHz, the normal instruction
execution time is 1 s. If a conditional test is true, or the
program counter is changed, as a result of an instruction, the instruction execution time is 2 s.

Note 1: When an I/O register is modified as a function of itself ( e.g., MOVF PORTB, 1), the value used will be that value present
on the pins themselves. For example, if the data latch is '1' for a pin configured as input and is driven low by an external
device, the data will be written back with a '0'.
2: If this instruction is executed on the TMR0 register (and, where applicable, d = 1), the prescaler will be cleared if
assigned to the Timer0 Module.
3: If Program Counter (PC) is modified or a conditional test is true, the instruction requires two cycles. The second cycle is
executed as a NOP.

The ability to use MPLAB IDE with multiple debugging
tools allows users to easily switch from the costeffective simulator to a full-featured emulator with
minimal retraining.
14.2
The MPASM assembler has a command line interface
and a Windows shell. It can be used as a stand-alone
application on a Windows 3.x or greater system, or it
can be used through MPLAB IDE. The MPASM assembler generates relocatable object files for the MPLINK
object linker, Intel® standard HEX files, MAP files to
detail memory usage and symbol reference, an absolute LST file that contains source lines and generated
machine code, and a COD file for debugging.
The MPASM assembler features include:

MPLINK Object Linker/
MPLIB Object Librarian
14.6
The MPLINK object linker combines relocatable
objects created by the MPASM assembler and the
MPLAB C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers. It can also
link relocatable objects from pre-compiled libraries,
using directives from a linker script.
The MPLIB object librarian is a librarian for precompiled code to be used with the MPLINK object
linker. When a routine from a library is called from
another source file, only the modules that contain that
routine will be linked in with the application. This allows
large libraries to be used efficiently in many different
applications. The MPLIB object librarian manages the
creation and modification of library files.
The MPLINK object linker features include:
• Integration with MPASM assembler and MPLAB
C17 and MPLAB C18 C compilers.
• Allows all memory areas to be defined as sections
to provide link-time flexibility.
The MPLIB object librarian features include:
• Easier linking because single libraries can be
included instead of many smaller files.
• Helps keep code maintainable by grouping
related modules together.
• Allows libraries to be created and modules to be
added, listed, replaced, deleted or extracted.
14.5
The MPLAB ICE universal in-circuit emulator is intended
to provide the product development engineer with a
complete microcontroller design tool set for PIC microcontrollers (MCUs). Software control of the MPLAB ICE
in-circuit emulator is provided by the MPLAB Integrated
Development Environment (IDE), which allows editing,
building, downloading and source debugging from a
single environment.
The MPLAB ICE 2000 is a full-featured emulator system with enhanced trace, trigger and data monitoring
features. Interchangeable processor modules allow the
system to be easily reconfigured for emulation of different processors. The universal architecture of the
MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator allows expansion to
support new PIC microcontrollers.
The MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator system has been
designed as a real-time emulation system, with
advanced features that are generally found on more
expensive development tools. The PC platform and
Microsoft® Windows environment were chosen to best
make these features available to you, the end user.
14.7
MPLAB SIM Software Simulator
The MPLAB SIM software simulator allows code development in a PC-hosted environment by simulating the
PIC series microcontrollers on an instruction level. On
any given instruction, the data areas can be examined
or modified and stimuli can be applied from a file, or
user-defined key press, to any of the pins. The execution can be performed in single step, execute until
break, or trace mode.
MPLAB ICE High Performance
Universal In-Circuit Emulator with
MPLAB IDE
ICEPIC In-Circuit Emulator
The ICEPIC low cost, in-circuit emulator is a solution
for the Microchip Technology PIC16C5X, PIC16C6X,
PIC16C7X and PIC16CXXX families of 8-bit OneTime-Programmable (OTP) microcontrollers. The modular system can support different subsets of PIC16C5X
or PIC16CXXX products through the use of interchangeable personality modules, or daughter boards.
The emulator is capable of emulating without target
application circuitry being present.
The MPLAB SIM simulator fully supports symbolic debugging using the MPLAB C17 and the MPLAB C18 C compilers and the MPASM assembler. The software simulator
offers the flexibility to develop and debug code outside of
the laboratory environment, making it an excellent multiproject software development tool.

Data in "Typ" column is at 5V, 25°C unless otherwise stated. These parameters are for design guidance only

This is the limit to which VDD can be lowered in SLEEP mode without losing RAM data.
The supply current is mainly a function of the operating voltage and frequency. Other factors such as I/O pin loading and switching rate, oscillator type, internal code execution pattern, and temperature also have an impact on
the current consumption.The test conditions for all IDD measurements in active operation mode are:
OSC1 = external square wave, from rail to rail;
all I/O pins tri-stated, pulled to VDD
MCLR = VDD.
The power-down current in SLEEP mode does not depend on the oscillator type. Power-down current is
measured with the part in SLEEP mode, with all I/O pins in hi-impedance state and tied to VDD and VSS.
For RC osc configuration, current through REXT is not included. The current through the resistor can be estimated by the formula Ir = VDD/2REXT (mA) with REXT in kOhm.
The  current is the additional current consumed when this peripheral is enabled. This current should be
added to the base IDD or IPD measurement.
PWRT must be enabled for slow ramps.
LCDT1 and LCDRC includes the current consumed by the LCD Module and the voltage generation
circuitry. This does not include current dissipated by the LCD panel.

Note 1: In RC oscillator configuration, the OSC1/CLKIN pin is a Schmitt Trigger input. It is not recommended that the
PIC16C925/926 be driven with external clock in RC mode.
2: The leakage current on the MCLR pin is strongly dependent on the applied voltage level. The specified
levels represent normal operating conditions. Higher leakage current may be measured at different input
voltages.
3: Negative current is defined as current sourced by the pin.

† Data in “Typ” column is at 5 V, 25°C unless otherwise stated. These parameters are for design guidance
only and are not tested.
Note 1: Instruction cycle period (TCY) equals four times the input oscillator time-base period. All specified values are
based on characterization data for that particular oscillator type under standard operating conditions with
the device executing code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in an unstable oscillator operation
and/or higher than expected current consumption. All devices are tested to operate at “min.” values with an
external clock applied to the OSC1/CLKIN pin.
When an external clock input is used, the “Max.” cycle time limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.

The minimum time is the amplifier
settling time. This may be used if
the “new” input voltage has not
changed by more than 1 LSb (i.e.,
5 mV @ 5.12V) from the last sampled voltage (as stated on CHOLD).
If the A/D clock source is selected
as RC, a time of TCY is added
before the A/D clock starts. This
allows the SLEEP instruction to be
executed.

NOTES:
 2001-2013 Microchip Technology Inc.
Preliminary
DS39544B-page 178
Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
